Employment status detection based on transaction information

ABSTRACT

An income analysis platform may receive information associated with employment-related activity of a user, wherein the employment-related activity is associated with an employment status of the user. The income analysis platform may analyze, using an employment analysis model, the information to determine the employment status of the user. The income analysis platform may determine, based on the information and using the employment analysis model, that there is a change in the employment status of the user. The income analysis platform may identify, based on the determined change in the employment status of the user, a service associated with a transaction account of the user. The income analysis platform may determine, based on the change in the employment status, that one or more terms of the service are to be adjusted. The income analysis platform may perform an action associated with adjusting the one or more terms of the service.

RELATED APPLICATION

This application is a continuation of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 16/777,148, filed Jan. 30, 2020 (now U.S. Pat. No. 10,796,380), which is incorporated herein by reference.

BACKGROUND

Individuals generally receive income to manage, maintain, and/or improve a particular way of life. The income may be received in the form of currency, property, credit, and/or the like. Further, the income may be received as earnings from an employer (e.g., via a job or employment with the employer), as a dividend associated with being a shareholder of a business, as a benefit from a governmental entity (e.g., for unemployment, disability, and/or the like), as investment earnings (e.g., earnings associated with stock, stock options, bonds, mutual funds, and/or the like), and/or the like.

SUMMARY

According to some implementations, a method may include monitoring, based on receiving access information, a transaction log of a transaction account; detecting, from the transaction log, that an income transaction occurred, wherein the income transaction is associated with receiving income from an entity; determining that the entity is associated with a new source of income; determining, based on the entity being associated with a new source of income, a probability that the employment status of the user has changed; analyzing, based on the probability that the employment status has changed, employment-related activity associated with the user to determine whether the user is likely unemployed; determining, based on the employment-related activity, that the user is likely unemployed; and performing an action associated with a service of the transaction account in association with the user being likely unemployed.

According to some implementations, a device may include one or more memories; and one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, configured to: monitor a transaction log of a transaction account of a user; detect, from the transaction log, that an income transaction occurred, wherein the income transaction is associated with receiving income from an entity; determine that the entity is associated with providing unemployment income, wherein the entity is determined to be associated with providing unemployment income based on an identifier of the entity being included in the transaction log and a mapping of unemployment income sources; determine, based on the entity being associated with providing unemployment income, that the user is likely unemployed; and perform an action associated with a service of the transaction account in association with the user being determined to be likely unemployed.

According to some implementations, a non-transitory computer-readable medium may store one or more instructions. The one or more instructions, when executed by one or more processors of a device, may cause the one or more processors to: receive information associated with employment-related activity of a user, wherein the employment-related activity is associated with an employment status of the user; analyze, using an employment analysis model, the information to determine the employment status of the user; determine, based on the information and using the employment analysis model, that there is a change in the employment status of the user; identify, based on the determined change in the employment status of the user, a service associated with a transaction account of the user; determine, based on the change in the employment status, that one or more terms of the service are to be adjusted; and perform an action associated with adjusting the one or more terms of the service.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following detailed description of example implementations refers to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numbers in different drawings may identify the same or similar elements.

In some instances, a user (e.g., an individual, such as a consumer, an account holder, and/or the like) may lose a source of income and/or a source of potential income. Meanwhile, the user may be engaged in one or more transactions (e.g., a loan, a credit agreement, and/or the like) with one or more entities (e.g., financial institutions, merchants, and/or the like). In such cases, a reduction in potential (or future) income stemming from losing the source of income can cause the user to experience difficulties associated with continuing to engage in the one or more transactions and/or other costs of living. In such cases, the user may seek to find a new job and/or apply to receive certain benefits, such as financial relief (e.g., reduced payments, payment grace periods, reduced interest, and/or the like associated with the one or more transactions), subsidized income (e.g., from a governmental entity), and/or the like. However, in many instances, there is delay in obtaining a new job (e.g., due to relatively long application and/or interview processes) and/or receiving such benefits (e.g., due to the application processes for the benefits), which can cause the user to fall further into debt, thereby further increasing the difficulties in continuing to engage in the one or more transactions and/or maintain an established way of life. Furthermore, the one or more entities engaged in the one or more transactions with the user may desire to maintain a relationship with the user (e.g., so as not to lose the user as a customer, debtor, business partner, and/or the like and/or any benefits associated with the user).

Some implementations described herein provide an income analysis platform that may proactively identify a potential loss of income of a user and perform an action associated with the user and the potential loss of income. For example, the income analysis platform may analyze employment-related activity of a user (based on the user opting-in to such an analysis), determine from the employment-related activity that the user may be or likely has become unemployed, and perform an action to address potential unemployment of the user. The employment-related activity may be associated with a transaction account of a user (e.g., no longer receiving employment-related income, receiving subsidized income, and/or the like), online activity of a user (e.g., searching for a job, accessing recruiting websites, changes to online activity during normal working hours of the user, and/or the like), purchase history of the user (e.g., showing a reduction in spending), information associated with an employer of the user (e.g., news indicating layoffs by the employer), and/or the like. Based on an analysis of such related activity, the income analysis platform may request the user to verify an employment status of the user, verify an amount of income that the user is receiving, verify a change in employment status, and/or the like. Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may interact with a transaction account platform to cause the transaction account platform to alter terms associated with one or more transactions of a transaction account of the user (e.g., reduce a minimum payment, reduce an interest rate, provision a payment grace period, extend a payment deadline, and/or the like).

Accordingly, the income analysis platform may enable a user to relatively seamlessly receive and/or an entity to relatively seamlessly provide relief associated with a transaction (and/or transaction account) by proactively monitoring an employment status (and/or income status) of the user and reducing (and/or offering to reduce) one or more terms associated with the transaction. In this way, an income analysis platform, as described herein, may efficiently, relative to previous techniques, detect an employment status of a user and/or correspondingly perform an action in association with a transaction account of the user, thereby conserving computing resources (e.g., by reducing processor resources and/or memory resources previously used to detect an employment status of a user, processing applications for relief, and/or the like) and/or network resources (e.g., by reducing a number of communications and/or inquiries associated with determining an employment status of a user, processing applications for relief, and/or the like). Furthermore, implementations described herein use a rigorous, scalable, computerized process (e.g., in association with and/or for thousands, millions, or more users, transaction accounts, and/or the like) to perform tasks or roles (e.g., simultaneously on the thousands, millions, or more users, transaction accounts, and/or the like) that were not previously performed. For example, previously, a technique did not exist to proactively analyze various employment indicators of a user (e.g., sources of income, online activity, content of messages, third party information, and/or the like), determine an employment status based on the indicators, and performing an action associated with a transaction account of the user based on the determined employment status. Furthermore, a process for detecting an employment status of a user, as described herein, conserves computing resources and/or network resources that would otherwise be wasted in attempting to reactively address a user being unemployed, a user losing a substantial amount of potential income, reactively performing an action in association with the transaction account of the user, contacting the user and/or working with the user to resolve stresses of unemployment, and/or the like.

FIGS. 1A-1C are diagrams of an example implementation 100 described herein. Example implementation 100 includes a user device, an income analysis platform, a transaction analysis platform, and a transaction account platform. Furthermore, in example implementation 100, the income analysis platform may be in communication with the user device, an external information platform, and/or a messaging platform, and the user device and/or the messaging platform may interact with a job search platform that is associated with information involving jobs, employers, employment opportunities, and/or the like.

As shown in FIG. 1A, and by reference number 110, the income analysis platform may receive, from the user device, access information (e.g., that permits the income analysis platform to monitor income and/or employment associated with the user). For example, the user device may be associated with a user, and the access information may include a set of credentials associated with an account of the user, such as a transaction account (e.g., a financial account, such as a bank account, a credit account, a debit account, and/or the like) of the user, a messaging account of the user, an online account (e.g., an internet browser account, a search engine account, a social media account, a job search application account, an online shopping account, and/or the like), and/or the like. The set of credentials may include a username/password combination for the user and the account, a security token (e.g., that provides limited access to the account) associated with the user and the account, a biometric associated with the user, and/or the like.

As described herein, a transaction account may be associated with (e.g., registered to, available to, and/or the like) a user to permit the user to engage in transactions via the transaction account (e.g., using funds associated with the transaction account). The transaction account may be managed and/or maintained by the transaction account platform for the user (e.g., using a transaction log to permit the user to view and/or access transaction activity of the transaction account). In some implementations, the transaction account platform may manage hundreds, thousands, or more transaction accounts, each of which may be used in hundreds, thousands, or more transactions, and/or the like.

In some implementations, a messaging account may include an email account, a text messaging account, an instant messaging account, a voice messaging account, and/or the like. In some implementations, a messaging account may be associated with messages (e.g., stored on the user device, stored on a messaging platform utilized by the user of the user device, and/or the like), such as email messages, text messages, instant messages, and/or the like. In some implementations, a messaging account may store hundreds, thousands, or more messages from hundreds, thousands, or more third parties, that include different types of content (e.g., personal content, transaction-related content, employment-related content, and/or the like). As described herein, the messaging account may receive employment-related messages indicating an employment status of the user. Such an employment-related message may include information identifying the employment status of the user, indicating a change in the employment status of the user, whether the user is searching for a new job, whether the user has registered with a job search platform, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may receive the access information based on requesting the access information from the user device (e.g., by providing a prompt via a display associated with the user device), based on a user of the user device inputting the access information (e.g., via a user interface, via an application installed on the user device, and/or the like), and/or the like. According to some implementations, the income analysis platform may perform a verification process to verify that a user that provided the input is an authorized user of the user device and/or an authorized user associated with an account described herein. Such a verification process may include requesting and processing credentials (e.g., a username, password, personal identification number, and/or the like), associated with an authorized user, personal information associated with an authorized user, security information associated with an authorized user, biometric information associated with an authorized user, and/or the like to authenticate the user. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may utilize a two-factor authentication process to receive authorization information from the user. The two-factor authentication process may increase a security of providing the income analysis platform with access to a component of the user device (as described below) by providing the income analysis platform with limited access to the component, by providing the user of the user device with control over whether the income analysis platform can access the component, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the access information may permit the income analysis platform to access a component (e.g., a microphone, a camera, a location device (e.g., such as a geolocation device and/or a geographical position system (GPS), and/or the like)) of the user device for a particular amount of time to permit the income analysis platform to obtain location information associated with the user (e.g., to determine whether the user is no longer going to a place of employment). In some implementations, the income analysis platform may prompt the user of the user device to permit the income analysis platform to access the component of the user device. In some implementations, after receiving the access information, the income analysis platform may access the component of the user device using the access information. For example, the income analysis platform may access a location system of the user device to determine a location of the user device, a camera or microphone to authenticate the user (e.g., using a biometric analysis, such as facial recognition, using voice recognition, and/or the like), and/or the like.

In some implementations, the access information may permit the income analysis platform to access a browser and/or software application associated with the user (e.g., a client application on the user device or other device associated with the user, a server application serving a client application of the user, and/or the like) for monitoring online activity, social media activity, and/or the like. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may prompt the user of the user device to permit the income analysis platform to access the browser and/or software application associated with the user. In some implementations, after receiving the access information, the income analysis platform may access the browser and/or software application to monitor the user's online activity, social activity, and/or the like.

To maintain privacy of a user associated with a transaction account, the income analysis platform may ensure that the user opts in (e.g., via the access information) to enable access to the messaging account, monitoring of transactions and/or access to the transaction account, and/or the like, monitoring and/or access to private information of the user, and/or the like. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may be configured to abide by any and all applicable laws with respect to maintaining the privacy of the user and/or content of the user's messaging account, transaction account, and/or the like. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may not download (or permanently store) any messages, transaction information, audio or image files or data, and/or the like, from the user device, the income analysis platform may anonymize and/or encrypt any private information associated with the user and/or accounts, messages, images, audio, and/or the like of the user, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may have or may be configured to have limited access to the transaction account, the messaging account, images or audio associated with the user, and/or the like. For example, the income analysis platform may be configured to only have access to the transaction account periodically and for a threshold time period and/or to a limited number of most recently posted transactions (e.g., the last ten transactions, twenty transactions, and/or the like), to only have access to a limited number of most recently received messages (e.g., the last ten messages, twenty messages, and/or the like), to only have access to messages with certain keywords or phrases (e.g., keywords or phrases representative of a transaction, keywords or phrases representative of an employer or employment status, and/or the like), to only have access to a particular folder of messages (e.g., a specific inbox), and/or the like. According to some implementations, the user may specify which information and/or the types of information that the income analysis platform may have access to and/or receive.

As described herein, the user may provide access information associated with controlling a component of the user device, accessing an account associated with the user, and/or enabling monitoring and/or analyzing of transaction information associated with user transactions. In some implementations, upon installing an application on the user device (e.g., an application for employment status detection based on transaction information), the application may request (e.g., via an authentication token) that the user authorize monitoring of the user's usage of the user device, characteristics of the user device, the user's transaction account and/or messaging account, and/or the like. Such a request may indicate to the user that the monitoring is for analyzing employment-related activity of a user, determining from the employment-related activity that the user may be or likely has become unemployed, and performing an action to address potential unemployment of the user. With an approval authorizing monitoring and/or analyzing of transaction information associated with user transactions, the application may monitor and/or analyze transaction information to detect an employment status of the user. In some implementations, the application may prompt the user to authorize monitoring and/or analyzing transaction information to detect an employment status of the user, as described herein. In some implementations, the application may not prompt the user to authorize monitoring and/or analyzing transaction information until a particular event has occurred (e.g., detection of a transaction, when a particular type of message is received, and/or the like), or may prompt the user to confirm a previous authorization when the particular event has occurred. The request and/or prompt may enable the user to opt out from being monitored by the application.

As further shown in FIG. 1A, and by reference number 120, the income analysis platform analyzes one or more transactions via the transaction account platform. For example, the income analysis platform may analyze one or more transactions in a transaction log of a transaction account associated with the user. The income analysis platform may process transactions to identify one or more employment-related transactions (e.g., income transactions, transactions from an entity that provides unemployment benefits, and/or the like). As shown, the income analysis platform may access a transaction account (e.g., a transaction account maintained by the transaction account platform) of the user and process the transactions in the transaction account (e.g., transactions that are maintained and/or stored in a transaction log of the transaction account platform). For example, the income analysis platform may process the transactions to identify employment-related activity. As used herein, employment-related activity may include income transactions in a transaction log of the transaction account. In some implementations, the transaction log may include amounts of income transactions, entities associated with income transactions, types of income transactions, transaction identifiers (e.g., transaction numbers), transaction dates, and/or the like. As used herein, a transaction that includes employment-related activity associated with the user is referred to as an “employment-related transaction.” In some implementations, the income analysis platform may process hundreds, thousands, or more transactions in hundreds, thousands, or more transaction accounts associated with hundreds, thousands, or more users. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may perform one or more rigorous computerized processes to process the transactions of the transaction account.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may pre-process the transactions to reduce the quantity of transactions that are further processed to identify employment-related transactions, for example by identifying a characteristic of the transaction that indicates employment-related activity, such as a change in an employment status (e.g., based on a social media post and/or profile information update) and/or an income status of the user. The characteristics may include a source of the transactions (e.g., based on an identifier of a source of the transactions), whether the source is included on a list of sources (e.g., employers, unemployment benefits agencies, and/or the like), a time and/or date on which the transactions were processed (e.g., designated and/or determined dates of payment), a type of the transaction, a value of the transaction, other information indicating a change in employment status, income status, and/or the like. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may not process transactions to identify an employment-related transaction unless the income analysis platform identifies a likelihood of transactions that are associated with employment-related activity. In this way, the income analysis platform may conserve computing resources and/or network resources that may otherwise by consumed by processing transactions that could have been filtered out as irrelevant.

Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may ignore transactions (e.g., transactions involving entities that are not likely to be associated with employment-related activity, such as debit transactions, transactions that are below a threshold value, and/or the like). For example, the income analysis platform may identify transactions associated with an entity that may be likely to be associated with an employment-related transaction by performing a lookup of an identifier associated with the entity, by analyzing a repository of hundreds, thousands, or more transactions to determine if the entity was involved in a same type of transaction associated with other transaction accounts (e.g., indicating that the transaction may be an employment-related transaction), and/or the like. Additionally, or alternatively, and as another example, the income analysis platform may analyze historical transactions (e.g., corresponding to identified employment-related transactions) associated with the transaction account and determine a pattern (e.g., a timing pattern, a value pattern, an entity pattern, a source pattern, and/or the like) for the employment-related transactions and may process and/or ignore transactions of the transaction account based on the pattern.

Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may identify one or more fields of entries of a transaction log associated with the transaction account and may ignore transactions with entries that include particular combinations of identifiers of entities, identifiers of sources, values of the transactions, dates of the transactions, and/or the like. Such a technique conserves processing resources of the income analysis platform by reducing a quantity of transactions that the income analysis platform may be required to process, by filtering out transactions that are unlikely to be employment-related transactions, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may process the transaction log using a combination of processing techniques (e.g., after pre-processing the transactions) to identify transactions that may be employment-related transactions. For example, the income analysis platform may process the transaction log using a text processing technique (e.g., a natural language processing technique, a text analysis technique, and/or the like), a code processing technique, and/or the like. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may process the transaction log using an image processing technique (e.g., a computer vision technique, an optical character recognition (OCR) technique, and/or the like to identify text corresponding to transactions of the transaction log).

In some implementations, when processing the transaction log using the text processing technique, the income analysis platform may process text of entries in the transaction log to identify terms, phrases, and/or the like included in the text (e.g., to identify an employment-related transaction included in the text, to extract information related to the employment-related transaction, and/or the like). For example, the income analysis platform may process the text of the transactions to identify terms and/or phrases that may be likely related to an employment-related transaction, that identify a source of income (e.g., an employer, an unemployment benefits agency, a transfer from a savings account, a retirement account, and/or the like) with which an employment-related transaction is likely to be associated, and/or the like.

In some implementations, when processing the transaction log using the code processing technique, the income analysis platform may process code associated with the transaction log to identify an employment-related transaction included in the transaction log, to identify information related to the employment-related transaction, and/or the like. For example, the income analysis platform may analyze code (e.g., hypertext markup language (HTML) code, cascading style sheet (CSS) code, and/or the like) associated with the transaction log and/or transaction account platform, tags within the code (e.g., a div tag, an image tag, text-related tags, and/or the like) that are associated with the transactions, and/or the like.

In some implementations, by processing the code, tags within the code, and/or the like, the income analysis platform may be capable of identifying text within the transaction log. For example, the income analysis platform may be configured with information that identifies a hierarchy of the code associated with the transaction log (e.g., the code may be structured in a hierarchical manner that impacts execution of the code, tags associated with the code may have a hierarchical structure to organize entries of the transaction log in the code and/or to impact a manner in which the transaction log is provided for display, and/or the like).

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may scan the hierarchical structure of the code associated with a transaction log to identify an employment-related transaction, to identify information related to the transaction log (entries corresponding to transactions in the transaction log), and/or the like. For example, the income analysis platform may scan the hierarchical structure of the code to identify fields, entries, and/or text in the code. Continuing with the previous example, if the income analysis platform identifies a field in the code of the transaction, then the income analysis platform may scan the hierarchical structure (e.g., tags that are at a higher or lower level in the hierarchical structure) to identify information (e.g., text, metadata, an entry, and/or the like) that may be associated with the field. Continuing still with the previous example, the income analysis platform may then process the information associated with the field to determine whether the field is associated with an employment-related transaction (e.g., using a text processing technique to identify terms, phrases, values, and/or the like included in the information that indicates that the field is a field of an entry for an employment-related transaction).

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may obtain one or more templates associated with employment-related transactions that are associated with one or more sources of income known to engage in and/or be sources of employment-related transactions. For example, the templates may indicate and/or define a particular format, a particular value, a particular entity identifier, and/or the like so that corresponding transactions can be identified as employment-related transactions. The income analysis platform may store the one or more template employment-related transactions in a data structure to enable the income analysis platform to use the template employment-related transaction to process the transaction log of the transaction account. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may obtain, from the data structure, the employment-related transaction for the source of income involved in the transaction and use the template employment-related transaction to process the transaction log of the transaction account (e.g., by ignoring transactions that do not follow the template and/or recognizing employment-related transactions in transactions that do follow the template) and/or other transaction accounts.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may determine a score that indicates a likelihood that a transaction is an employment-related transaction based on a result of processing the transaction. For example, the income analysis platform may use a machine learning model, such as a transaction analysis model, that has been trained on a training set of data that identifies results of processing transactions and corresponding scores indicating a likelihood that the transactions are employment-related transactions. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may use the score to identify transactions from which to extract entities, values, and/or the like associated with employment-related transactions, transactions to process, transactions to tag, and/or the like, as described elsewhere herein. This conserves processing resources by providing the income analysis platform with an efficient way to identify transactions that are likely to be employment-related transactions, thereby reducing a quantity of transactions that the income analysis platform processes that are not employment-related transactions.

Accordingly, the income analysis platform may train the transaction analysis model based on one or more parameters associated with identifying employment-related transactions, such as a format of an employment-related transaction, a template of an employment-related transaction, a field (e.g., a date field, an entity field, a value field, and/or the like) associated with an employment-related transaction, a type of an employment-related transaction (e.g., a debit transaction, a credit transaction, and/or the like), an entity or source associated with an employment-related transaction, and/or the like. The income analysis platform may train the transaction analysis model using historical data associated with identifying employment-related transactions within a transaction log of a transaction account according to the one or more parameters. Using the historical data and the one or more parameters as inputs to the transaction analysis model, the income analysis platform may determine that a transaction of a transaction log is an employment-related transaction or that a transaction is not an employment-related transaction in order to determine whether the transaction log includes an employment-related transaction associated with the user.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may perform batch processing of the transactions in the transaction account in order to determine whether the transaction account includes an employment-related transaction. For example, the income analysis platform may process a first batch of transactions based on detecting a change in the set of transactions (e.g., identifying an income transaction that is less than another income transaction, identifying a new source of income, identifying a new transaction associated with an unemployment benefits agency, and/or the like). The first batch may correspond to the set of transactions processed between the time of detecting the change in the set of transactions and a first time after detecting the change in the set of transactions (e.g., within a day, five days, one month, and/or the like). If the income analysis platform determines that the first batch of transactions does not include an employment-related transaction for the transaction, then the income analysis platform may process a second batch of transactions received between the first time after the transaction and a second time after the transaction (e.g., within a day, five days, one month, and/or the like after the first time). If the income analysis platform determines that the second batch of transactions does not include an employment-related transaction for the transaction, the income analysis platform may process a third batch, and so on.

In this way, the income analysis platform may analyze the transaction to identify employment-related transactions (and/or a change in income) to permit the income analysis platform to determine whether the transactions reflect a change in an employment status and/or income status of the user.

As further shown in FIG. 1A, and by reference number 130, the income analysis platform detects a change associated with a status of the user. For example, the income analysis platform may determine that an employment status and/or an income status associated with a user may have changed based on analyzing a set of transactions in the transaction log. The set of transactions may correspond to income transactions of the user that reflect payments (e.g., credits) to a balance of the transaction account (e.g., indicating that the user received a payment).

According to some implementations, the income analysis platform may detect that an income transaction occurred, and analyze the income transaction to determine whether an entity involved in the income is a new source of income or is associated with a new source of income of the user. The income analysis platform may determine that the entity is associated with a new source of income based on an identifier of the entity being different from a mapping of other identifiers for other sources of income. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may determine that the entity is a new source of income after a threshold number of income transactions (e.g., two or more) associated with the entity are identified in the transaction log. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may determine a change to an employment status and/or an entity status based on an amount of the income transaction satisfying a threshold. For example, if the income analysis platform does not recognize that the source of income is an unemployment benefits agency, the income analysis platform may analyze values associated with income transactions and determine that a recent transaction income satisfies a threshold that is relative to a previous transaction income (e.g., a threshold that corresponds to a percentage of an amount of income received from an employer and/or an unemployment benefits percentage). Accordingly, the income analysis platform may analyze a transaction to determine whether the transaction corresponds to a change in a status of the user.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may determine that a characteristic of a set of transactions indicates that the set of transactions correspond to a potential change in an employment status associated with the user and/or a change in an income status associated with the user. For example, the income analysis platform may determine that the set of transactions involve different entities (e.g., different entities may correspond to a change in an employer and/or source of income), an entity determined to be a new source of income (e.g., based on the entity not being identified in a mapping or data structure of the income analysis platform as a source of income for the user), that the set of transactions involve a threshold difference in value (e.g., a threshold decrease may indicate a loss of employment), that there is a particular relationship between values of the set of transactions (e.g., one transaction may correspond to a fraction of the other that corresponds to an unemployment income ratio), that at least one of the set of transactions are associated with a particular entity (e.g., a governmental entity, such as an unemployment agency), and/or the like. Accordingly, information associated with the set of transactions may include a characteristic (e.g., a time, a transaction value, a source, and/or the like) that indicates a likelihood that the transaction is related to a change in employment status and/or source of income.

In this way, the income analysis platform may determine that there is likely a change in an employment status and/or income status of the user to permit the income analysis platform to verify the employment status and/or income status of the user.

As shown in FIG. 1B, and by reference number 140, the income analysis platform obtains information associated with employment-related activity. As shown, the income analysis platform may obtain the information from the user device, the messaging platform, and/or the external information platform. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may obtain the information based on detecting the change associated with the set of transactions, a potential change in an income status of the user, a potential change in an employment status of the user, and/or the like.

In some implementations, if the income analysis platform determines that the set of transactions indicate a likely change in employment and/or income associated with the user (e.g., based on one or more of the characteristics described above), the income analysis platform may perform one or more operations to obtain and/or analyze information associated with employment-related activity of the user. In such cases, the income analysis platform may identify the characteristic and/or identify that the transaction is likely employment related (e.g., based on the characteristic), and process information associated with employment-related activity, as described herein. On the other hand, if the income analysis platform determines that a transaction likely is not employment-related (e.g., based on a threshold probability), then the income analysis platform may forego monitoring or processing employment-related activity associated with the user. The threshold probability may be a static threshold (e.g., 50% likely employment-related, 75% likely employment-related, 90% likely employment-related, and/or the like) or a transaction specific threshold that is based on one or more characteristics of the transaction. Therefore, computing resources and/or network resources that may otherwise be wasted processing employment-related activity associated with the user can be conserved.

As further shown in FIG. 1B, and by reference number 140 a, the income analysis platform may obtain online activity associated with the user. For example, the income analysis platform may be configured to monitor online activity of a user, such as the user browsing webpages using a browser (e.g., on the user device) to research employment-related information (e.g., available jobs, unemployment benefits information, and/or the like). Such online activity and/or similar online activity (e.g., social media activity, searches, sending messages, accessing media, and/or the like) involving employment-related information may indicate that the user is interested in finding a new job, is learning about unemployment benefits, is potentially unemployed, is seeking to use funds from a savings account and/or retirement account (e.g., by accessing online platforms associated with those accounts), posting assets for sale (e.g., via an online marketplace), and/or the like. Similarly, in some implementations, other activity can be monitored (e.g., sending a message identifying the employment-related information, accessing offline media associated with the employment-related information, traveling to a location of a source of income (e.g., as described above) associated with employment-related information, and/or the like) to determine whether a user is interested in employment-related information.

While example implementation 100 may focus on monitoring the user's online activity, some implementations may monitor other types of user activity. For example, the income analysis platform may monitor activity associated with a location of the user (e.g., via a location device of the user device), activity associated with the user being involved in a particular event (e.g., a meeting with a potential employer and/or unemployment benefits agency) or being scheduled to be involved in a particular event (e.g., based on a calendar associated with the user), and/or the like. Accordingly, one or more activities may involve a user's action, a user's location, and/or other similar activity or characteristics of the activity.

In example implementation 100, the online activity may be monitored on the user device associated with a user. For example, the online activity may be monitored via an application running on the user device and/or an application (e.g., an applet, an application programming interface, a plug-in, a browser extension, and/or the like) installed on a browser of the user device. The online activity may be monitored using any suitable techniques, such as scraping hypertext markup language (HTML) associated with the online activity, capturing search strings associated with the online activity, and/or the like.

As further shown in FIG. 1B, and by reference number 140 b, the income analysis platform may process messages to identify employment-related activity. As shown, the income analysis platform may access a messaging account (e.g., a messaging account maintained by the messaging platform) of the user and process the messages in the messaging account (e.g., messages that are maintained and/or stored by the messaging platform). For example, the income analysis platform may process the messages to identify employment-related activity. As used herein, employment-related activity may include a purchase history of the user, a type of online activity of the user, timing of online activity of the user, an amount of online activity of the user that is employment-related, content of a message account of the user, employment-related social media activity of the user, information associated with an employer associated with the user, and/or the like. For example, the employment-related activity may include job search results, job posting emails, job search website registrations, and/or the like.

As used herein, a message that includes employment-related activity is referred to as an “employment-related message”. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may process hundreds, thousands, or more messages in hundreds, thousands, or more messaging accounts associated with hundreds, thousands, or more users. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may perform one or more rigorous computerized processes to process the messages of the messaging account.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may pre-process the messages to reduce the quantity of messages that are further processed to identify employment-related messages, for example by identifying a characteristic of the message that suggests a change in an employment status and/or an income status of the user. The characteristics may include a source of the messages (e.g., domain name of a source of the messages, whether the source is included on a list of sources (e.g., job search entities, employment recruiters, and/or the like), and/or the like), a folder into which the messages have been filtered by the messaging platform (e.g., an inbox, a promotions folder, a spam folder, a customized folder, and/or the like), a time and/or date on which the messages were received (e.g., messages received before the time and/or date of the detected changes in the set of transactions (e.g., corresponding to a drop in income) and/or a transaction (e.g., being received from a new source of income and/or an entity that provides an unemployment benefit), and/or the like. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may not process messages to identify an employment-related message unless the income analysis platform identifies a likelihood that the messages include employment-related activity. In this way, the income analysis platform may conserve computing resources and/or network resources that may otherwise be consumed by processing messages that could have been filtered out as irrelevant.

Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may ignore messages (e.g., from third parties that are not likely to be associated with employment-related activity, such as personal messages, newsletters, and/or the like). For example, the income analysis platform may identify messages associated with a third party that may be likely to be associated with an employment-related message by performing a lookup of a domain name associated with a message, by analyzing a repository of hundreds, thousands, or more messages to determine if the same type of message was sent to other messaging accounts (e.g., indicating that the message may be employment-related activity), by performing a lookup of a portion of a source identifier (e.g., a user identifier before the “@” symbol in an email address), and/or the like. Additionally, or alternatively, and as another example, the income analysis platform may analyze historical messages associated with a folder and determine a theme for the folder and may ignore messages in that folder (e.g., a folder with a personal theme, a promotional theme, and/or the like) and/or process the messages in that folder (e.g., an employment-related folder, an income folder, a transaction folder, a receipt folder, and/or the like) based on the theme.

Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may identify terms and/or phrases included in a subject line and/or in a body of a message and may ignore messages that include particular combinations of terms and/or phrases. Additionally, or alternatively, and as another example, the income analysis platform may ignore duplicate messages (e.g., messages that have the same header, the same body, the same unique identifier, and/or the like). Such a technique conserves processing resources of the income analysis platform by reducing a quantity of messages that the income analysis platform may be required to process, by filtering messages that are unlikely to be employment-related messages, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may process the messages using a combination of processing techniques (e.g., after pre-processing the messages) to identify messages that may be employment-related messages. For example, the income analysis platform may process the messages using an image processing technique (e.g., a computer vision technique, an optical character recognition (OCR) technique, etc.), a text processing technique (e.g., a natural language processing technique, a text analysis technique, etc.), a code processing technique, and/or the like.

In some implementations, when processing the messages using the image processing technique, the income analysis platform may process images associated with the messages. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may identify that a message includes an image by detecting that the message includes an image as an attachment (e.g., based on a file type of the attachment), by detecting an image in a body of the message (e.g., as compared to detecting text in the body of the message), by processing code associated with the message to detect an image (e.g., by detecting an image tag in code of an email or by detecting a unique resource identifier for an image included in the code), and/or the like. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may process the image to identify a term, a phrase, a logo, a symbol, and/or the like included in the image. For example, the income analysis platform may process the image using OCR to identify employment-related activity included in the image, an entity associated with the employment-related activity (e.g., an income source, an employer, and/or the like), and/or the like.

Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may capture an image of the body of a message (e.g., text and images included in the body of the message), such as by saving a copy of the message as a portable data format (PDF) document or by capturing a screen shot of the message, and may process the image in a similar manner (e.g., to identify terms, phrases, logos, and/or the like included in the image of the body of the message). For example, the income analysis platform may capture an image of text of the message, images included in the message, and/or the like and may process the image to identify employment-related activity included in the message, to extract information related to the employment-related activity from the message, and/or the like.

In some implementations, an image associated with the message may include one or more employment-related activities, may include a single employment-related activity, may be comprised of multiple images, and/or the like. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may identify multiple employment-related activities in a single image. For example, when processing the image, the income analysis platform may identify characteristics of the image that indicate that multiple employment-related activities are included in the image. Continuing with the previous example, the income analysis platform may identify each of the multiple employment-related activities in the image by identifying lines or boxes in the image that surround or separate the multiple employment-related activities in the image from each other, by identifying multiple unique identifiers in the image (e.g., identifiers of job search engines, identifiers of potential employers, and/or the like), by identifying repeating terms and/or phrases in the image (e.g., multiple transaction dates associated with corresponding transactions), and/or the like.

In some implementations, when processing the messages using the text processing technique, the income analysis platform may process text of the message to identify terms, phrases, and/or the like included in the text (e.g., to identify employment-related activity included in the text, to extract information related to the employment-related activity, and/or the like). For example, the income analysis platform may process the text of the messages to identify terms, phrases, and/or context (e.g., using natural language processing) that may likely be related to an employment-related activity, that identify a source of income (e.g., an employment-related entity) with which an employment-related activity is likely to be associated, and/or the like.

In some implementations, when processing the messages using the code processing technique, the income analysis platform may process code associated with the messages to identify employment-related activity included in the messages, to identify information related to the employment-related activity, and/or the like. For example, the income analysis platform may analyze code (e.g., hypertext markup language (HTML) code, cascading style sheet (CSS) code, and/or the like) associated with messages, tags within the code (e.g., a div tag, an image tag, text-related tags, and/or the like) that are associated with the messages, and/or the like.

In some implementations, by processing the code, tags within the code, and/or the like, the income analysis platform may be capable of identifying text within the message, images within the message, and/or the like that indicate a likelihood that the message is associated with employment-related activity. For example, the income analysis platform may be configured with information that identifies a hierarchy of the code associated with the message (e.g., the code may be structured in a hierarchical manner that impacts execution of the code, tags associated with the code may have a hierarchical structure to organize information in the code and/or to impact a manner in which the information is provided for display, and/or the like). In some implementations, the income analysis platform may scan the hierarchical structure of the code associated with a message to identify employment-related activity included in the message, to identify information related to the message, and/or the like. For example, the income analysis platform may scan the hierarchical structure of the code to identify text and/or images included in the code. Continuing with the previous example, if the income analysis platform identifies an image in the code of the message, then the income analysis platform may scan the hierarchical structure (e.g., tags that are at a higher or lower level in the hierarchical structure) to identify information (e.g., text, metadata, etc.) that may be associated with the image. Continuing still with the previous example, the income analysis platform may then process the information associated with the image to determine whether the image includes employment-related activity (e.g., using a text processing technique to identify terms, phrases, and/or the like included in the information that indicates that the image includes employment-related activity.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may obtain one or more template employment-related messages that are associated with one or more employment-related entities (e.g., a job search engine, a recruiter, a potential employer, a governmental entity (that provides unemployment benefits), and/or the like) known to send employment-related messages. The income analysis platform may store the one or more template employment-related messages in a data structure to enable the income analysis platform to use the template employment-related message to process the messages of the messaging account. Accordingly, the income analysis platform may obtain, from the data structure, the employment-related message for the employment-related entity involved in the transaction and use the template employment-related message to process the messages of the messaging account (e.g., by ignoring messages that do not follow the template and/or recognizing employment-related activity in messages that do follow the template).

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may determine a score that indicates a likelihood that a message includes an employment-related activity based on a result of processing the message. For example, the income analysis platform may use a machine learning model, such as a message analysis model, that has been trained on a training set of data that identifies results of processing messages and corresponding scores indicating a likelihood that the messages include an employment-related activity. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may use the score to identify messages from which to extract employment-related activity, messages to process, messages to tag, messages marked as read or unread (e.g., read messages may indicate a higher likelihood, relative to unread messages, that the user has an interest in employment-related activity), and/or the like, as described elsewhere herein. This conserves processing resources by providing the income analysis platform with an efficient way to identify messages that are likely to include and/or be associated with employment-related activity, thereby reducing a quantity of messages that the income analysis platform processes that do not include employment-related activity.

Accordingly, the income analysis platform may train the message analysis model based on one or more parameters associated with identifying employment-related activity in one or more messages, such as a format of an employment-related message, a template of an employment-related message, an image associated with an employment-related message, a field (e.g., a date field, a time field, a job search query, a job search result field, and/or the like) associated with an employment-related message, a type of an employment-related message (e.g., a notification message, a receipt, and/or the like), an employment-related entity associated with an employment-related message, an attachment associated with an employment-related message, and/or the like. The income analysis platform may train the message analysis model using historical data associated with identifying employment-related activities within messages according to the one or more parameters. Using the historical data and the one or more parameters as inputs to the message analysis model, the income analysis platform may determine that a message is an employment-related message or that a message is not an employment-related message in order to determine whether a messaging account includes an employment-related message associated with employment-related activity.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may perform batch processing of the messages in the messaging account in order to determine whether the messaging account includes an employment-related message. For example, the income analysis platform may process a first batch of messages based on a transaction and/or the detected change in the set of transactions The first batch may correspond to the set of messages received between the time of the transaction and a first time after the transaction and/or the detected change in the set of transactions (e.g., within a day, five days, one month, and/or the like). If the income analysis platform determines that the first batch of messages does not include an employment-related message for the transaction, then the income analysis platform may process a second batch of messages received between the first time after the transaction and a second time after the transaction (e.g., within a day, five days, one month after the first time, and/or the like). If the income analysis platform determines that the second batch of messages does not include an employment-related message for the transaction, the income analysis platform may process a third batch, and so on.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may use a machine learning model, such as a batch processing model, to determine a number of the batches of messages that are to be processed and/or determine lengths of time periods between processing the batches of messages. For example, the income analysis platform may train the batch processing model based on one or more parameters associated with a transaction and/or the detected change in the set of transactions, such as an entity associated with one or more of the set of transactions, a value associated with one or more of the set of transactions, a date of one or more of the set of transactions, and/or the like. Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may train the batch processing model based on one or parameters associated with the user involved in a transaction and/or the detected change in the set of transactions, such as a location associated with the user (e.g., a home address, a work address, a known location of the user, and/or the like), a status of a financial account of the user (e.g., whether the account is in good standing, on hold, and/or the like), and/or the like. Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may train the batch processing model based on one or more parameters associated with the messaging account, such as a type of the messaging account, a service provider associated with the messaging account, a format of the messaging account, and/or the like. The income analysis platform may train the batch processing model using historical data associated with determining the number of batches and/or the time periods between processing the batches according to the one or more parameters associated with a transaction and/or the detected change in the set of transactions, the one or more parameters associated with the user, and/or the one or more parameters associated with the messaging account. Using the historical data and these parameters as inputs to the batch processing model, the income analysis platform may perform batch processing of the messages in the messaging account to determine whether the messaging account received an employment-related message associated with a characteristic that indicates employment-related activity, such as a change in an employment status and/or an income status of the user.

In this way, by batch processing the messages of the messaging account, the income analysis platform may conserve computing resources and/or network resources by accessing the messaging platform at certain times to process the messages, rather than continuously using computing resources and/or network resources to monitor the messaging account for received messages.

As further shown in FIG. 1B, and by reference number 140 c, the income analysis platform may receive, from the external information platform, employer information associated with an employer of the user. For example, the external information platform may include and/or be associated with one or more online platforms configured to generate and/or provide information associated with an employer of the user. Such online platforms may include news organizations, search engines and/or platforms, employer websites, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may subscribe to a really simple syndication (RSS) feed of the external information platform that is configured to provide employer information to the income analysis platform. In some implementations, the RSS feed may be specific to employment-related information (e.g., to provide news associated with the employer hiring and/or terminating employees, removing positions from an organization structure of the employer, and/or the like). Additionally, or alternatively, the RSS feed may be specific to a particular employer (e.g., the employer of the user).

In this way, the income analysis platform may gather a plurality of employment-related information associated with the user to determine a likelihood of whether the user is employed or unemployed.

As shown in FIG. 1C, and by reference number 150, the income analysis platform determines that the user is likely unemployed. For example, the income analysis platform may determine, based on the analyzed set of transactions, the employment-related activity associated with the user, and/or the like that the user is likely unemployed. Correspondingly, the income analysis platform may determine that the user has lost potential income.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may use a machine learning model, such as an employment analysis model, to determine from the employment-related activity a probability that the user is employed, unemployed, and/or that an employment status of the user has changed (e.g., in association with a decrease or increase in potential income). For example, the income analysis platform may train the employment analysis model based on one or more parameters associated with determining a probability that a user is employed or unemployed (and/or experienced a change in income), such as one or more of the characteristics indicating a potential change in an employment status and/or income status (e.g., the transaction log indicating a new source of income, the transaction log including a transaction associated with an unemployment benefits agency, the transaction log reflecting a decrease in income, and/or the like), an amount of online activity associated with employment-related activity, a period of time and/or timing associated with the online activity (e.g., whether the online activity occurs during typical working hours of the user, and/or the like), the type of online activity (e.g., job searching, social media activity, accessing job posts, reading/accessing email on job posts, and/or the like), one or more job platforms accessed during the online activity, types of employment-related information (e.g., information indicating mass layoffs, increased hiring, and/or the like) received from the external information platform, and/or the like. The amount of employment-related online activity may correspond to one or more webpages associated with employment opportunities, managing unemployment, and/or the like, a frequency with which the webpages were accessed, a number of employment-related searches, an amount of employment-related media (e.g., images, video, audio, and/or the like) that was accessed, a number of reviews associated with employment-related websites, applications, or programs, an amount of employment-related social media activity (e.g., likes, comments, follows, and/or the like), a number of employment-related messages (e.g., emails, texts, social media messages, and/or the like) sent or received, an amount of employer related information received from the external information platform, and/or the like. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may train the employment analysis model using historical data associated with the user and/or a plurality of other users purchasing the product according to the one or more parameters. Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may train the employment analysis model using historical data associated with determining an employment status of a user according to the one or more parameters. Using the historical data and the one or more parameters, associated with determining a probability that a user is employed and/or unemployed, as inputs to the employment analysis model, the income analysis platform may determine an employment status of the user and/or a probability that the user is employed or unemployed to perform an action associated with a transaction and/or a transaction account of the user.

According to some implementations, based on an analysis of the transaction log and/or the employment-related activity indicating that the user is likely unemployed, the income analysis platform may request that the user verify that the user is unemployed. For example, the income analysis platform may send a message (and/or other type of communication) to the user to request the user to verify and/or indicate the user's employment status. In this way, the income analysis platform may receive confirmation of the user's employment status. According to some implementations, the income analysis platform may train the employment analysis model (and/or any other model described herein) based on the user's response and the determined probability that the user is unemployed.

In this way, the income analysis platform may perform an analysis and/or operation to verify that the user is likely unemployed based on the analysis of the transaction log and/or employment-related activity of the user.

As further shown in FIG. 1C, and by reference number 160, the income analysis platform may perform an action associated with the transaction account of the user. For example, the income analysis platform may identify one or more services associated with the transaction account and/or the user, and/or one or more other transaction accounts of the user. For example, assuming the transaction account is a checking and/or savings account of the user, the income analysis platform may adjust settings associated with payments from the transaction account (e.g., payments associated with paying bills, payments associated with paying a debt to a credit account, a direct deposit requirement, and/or the like).

According to some implementations, the income analysis platform may adjust a service and/or cause a term of service to be adjusted based on determining that the user is likely unemployed (and/or has experienced a change in employment status and/or income status). For example, if the user is determined to be unemployed, the income analysis platform may adjust a service to reduce an amount of a scheduled transaction (e.g. a minimum payment amount due) involving the transaction account (e.g., a scheduled loan payment), extend a due date associated with a scheduled transaction from the transaction account (e.g., applying a grace period to extend an amount of time before a payment is due), reduce an interest rate associated with a transaction (e.g., a transaction of a debt payment plan) involving the transaction account, and/or the like.

In some implementations, the income analysis platform may perform such actions based on one or more factors involving the unemployment status of the user and/or the usage of the service associated with the transaction account. For example, if the user is continuing to increase a balance (e.g., a credit account balance) that is configured to be paid off using funds of the transaction account, the income analysis platform may not perform an action to reduce the amount due, an interest amount associated with the payment or future payments, and/or the like (e.g., because the user is not accounting for the reduced amount of income by reducing spending using the account). Accordingly, the income analysis platform may monitor the user's financial activity, during the user's unemployment (and/or period of experiencing reduced income), to determine whether to adjust a term of service associated with transactions involving the transaction account. In some implementations, the income analysis platform may provide an offer to the user to adjust one or more of the terms of the service to permit the user to authorize the change. Additionally, or alternatively, the income analysis platform may offer the user to place a limit on spending by the user (e.g., by enabling the user to authorize application of a spending limit to a transaction card and/or transaction account associated with the user), may offer to lock a transaction account (e.g., by enabling the user to authorize that the transaction account be locked until a level of income is returned to satisfactory condition), may provide an offer to the user to enable the user to sign up for a service and/or a transaction account with more favorable terms, may provide information to the user about an expert (e.g., a service representative, a financial planner, a life coach, and/or the like) that can assist the user in managing the reduced income and/or change in employment status, and/or the like.

In some implementations, when the income analysis platform determines the change in the employment status indicates that the user has a new employer and/or that the user is experiencing an increase in income (or potential income), the income analysis platform may provide an offer to adjust one or more terms of the service of the user (e.g., to be more beneficial to both the user and/or to the employer).

Accordingly, as described herein, an income analysis platform may permit an entity to proactively determine a user's employment and/or income status and perform one or more actions to benefit both the user and the employer. Such actions may conserve computing resources and/or network resources associated with a user experiencing a loss of a job and/or a loss of income (in addition to health benefits of the user, such as reducing stress, anxiety, and/or the like that comes with a loss of a job or income). In this way, the income analysis platform may enhance both a user experience with an entity and financial benefit of both the user and the entity (e.g., by permitting the entity to maintain consumer loyalty).

As indicated above, FIGS. 1A-1C are provided as one or more examples. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to FIGS. 1A-1C.

FIG. 2 is a diagram of an example environment 200 in which systems and/or methods, described herein, may be implemented. As shown in FIG. 2, environment 200 may include, an income analysis platform 210 hosted by one or more computing resources 215 in a cloud computing environment 220, one or more user devices 230 (referred to herein individually as user device 230 or collectively as user devices 230), one or more server devices 240 (referred to herein individually as server device 240 or collectively as server device 240), a transaction account platform 250, and a network 260. Devices of environment 200 may interconnect via wired connections, wireless connections, or a combination of wired and wireless connections.

Income analysis platform 210 includes one or more computing resources assigned to determine an employment status and/or income status of a user. For example, income analysis platform 210 may be a platform implemented by cloud computing environment 220 that may analyze employment-related transactions, employment-related activity, and/or employment-related information associated with a user, determine the employment status and/or income status, and perform one or more actions associated with the user in accordance with the determined employment status and/or income status. In some implementations, income analysis platform 210 is implemented by computing resources 215 of cloud computing environment 220.

Income analysis platform 210 may include a server device or a group of server devices. In some implementations, income analysis platform 210 may be hosted in cloud computing environment 220. Notably, while implementations described herein may describe income analysis platform 210 as being hosted in cloud computing environment 220, in some implementations, income analysis platform 210 may be non-cloud-based or may be partially cloud-based.

Cloud computing environment 220 includes an environment that delivers computing as a service, whereby shared resources, services, and/or the like may be provided to user device 230, server device 240, transaction account platform 250, and/or the like. Cloud computing environment 220 may provide computation, software, data access, storage, and/or other services that do not require end-user knowledge of a physical location and configuration of a system and/or a device that delivers the services. As shown, cloud computing environment 220 may include income analysis platform 210 and computing resource 215.

Computing resource 215 includes one or more personal computers, workstation computers, server devices, or another type of computation and/or communication device. In some implementations, computing resource 215 may host income analysis platform 210. The cloud resources may include compute instances executing in computing resource 215, storage devices provided in computing resource 215, data transfer devices provided by computing resource 215, and/or the like. In some implementations, computing resource 215 may communicate with other computing resources 215 via wired connections, wireless connections, or a combination of wired and wireless connections.

As further shown in FIG. 2, computing resource 215 may include a group of cloud resources, such as one or more applications (“APPs”) 215-1, one or more virtual machines (“VMs”) 215-2, virtualized storage (“VSs”) 215-3, one or more hypervisors (“HYPs”) 215-4, or the like.

Application 215-1 includes one or more software applications that may be provided to or accessed by user device 230. Application 215-1 may eliminate a need to install and execute the software applications on user device 230. For example, application 215-1 may include software associated with income analysis platform 210 and/or any other software capable of being provided via cloud computing environment 220. In some implementations, one application 215-1 may send/receive information to/from one or more other applications 215-1, via virtual machine 215-2.

Virtual machine 215-2 includes a software implementation of a machine (e.g., a computer) that executes programs like a physical machine. Virtual machine 215-2 may be either a system virtual machine or a process virtual machine, depending upon use and degree of correspondence to any real machine by virtual machine 215-2. A system virtual machine may provide a complete system platform that supports execution of a complete operating system (“OS”). A process virtual machine may execute a single program and may support a single process. In some implementations, virtual machine 215-2 may execute on behalf of a user (e.g., user device 230), and may manage infrastructure of cloud computing environment 220, such as data management, synchronization, or long-duration data transfers.

Virtualized storage 215-3 includes one or more storage systems and/or one or more devices that use virtualization techniques within the storage systems or devices of computing resource 215. In some implementations, within the context of a storage system, types of virtualizations may include block virtualization and file virtualization.

The separation may permit administrators of the storage system flexibility in how the administrators manage storage for end users. File virtualization may eliminate dependencies between data accessed at a file level and a location where files are physically stored. This may enable optimization of storage use, server consolidation, and/or performance of non-disruptive file migrations.

Hypervisor 215-4 provides hardware virtualization techniques that allow multiple operating systems (e.g., “guest operating systems”) to execute concurrently on a host computer, such as computing resource 215. Hypervisor 215-4 may present a virtual operating platform to the “guest operating systems” and may manage the execution of the guest operating systems. Multiple instances of a variety of operating systems may share virtualized hardware resources.
